Syrah, Faugères AOC
Faugères is an Appellation d'origine contrôlée (AOC) in the Languedoc-Roussillon wine region in France and is named after Faugères. It is also known as Coteaux-du-Languedoc Faugères and lies 20 km northwest of Béziers, on the hills of Hérault. It is a local classification within the Coteaux-du-Languedoc AOC. The main grape varieties in Faugères are Carignan, Cinsault, Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah for red and rosé wines. Rousanne, white Grenache, Marsanne and Vermentino for white wines. 80% of grape production is used to make red wine. The name of the AOC comes from the village Faugères, whose earliest known written form, dating back to 934 AD, was de Falgarias. This in turn is taken from the Latin filicaria, meaning "fern" in English, and translating into French as "fougère". (Wikipedia)
